How do you tell the difference between porcelain and ceramic figurines?
Filed Under (ceramics) by admin
Gee W asked:


We’ve got a bunch of figurines here (some are hollow houses, but the rest are completely solid, painted miniatures) and they don’t have labels describing if they are porcelain or ceramic.

We want to list them on eBay, but don’t know how to describe them.

Please tell us how to tell the difference between porcelain and ceramic miniatures.

Also, is it okay to wash them? They’re fairly dirty…

Thanks!
